So we broke down and got this 4 Wheeler for Preston! All he ever talks about is 4 wheelers and motorcycles and kept asking Dan when he would get him a 4 wheeler - so Dan and I went and picked up the 4 Wheeler and surprised him with it. Dan was so excited he could hardly stand it!The moment was ruined as soon as Preston ran out and all he said was FINALLY! What a spoiled little rat! As the day went on Preston was indeed more and more grateful for the 4 Wheeler and thanked his dad several times for it!! He spent every waking moment on it for a few days until a spark plug went out and now it is out of commission and the dang spark plug fairy has not been here to fix it yet!

What Do You Do If Deer Start Eating Your Garden?

You Build a Keep out the Deer Contraption! My mom had this great garden growing this summer and then she noticed that something kept nibbling on her beautiful plants. She discovered it must be the ground squirrels she had seen that were burrowing holes in her yard, she got bait to take care of them (Riley even put bubble gum down one of their holes so they would choke on it)(MEAN!)Then one day all her bean plants had vanished - she was hoppin' mad! She was bound and determined to get to the bottom of this. Her detective work paid off - it was the deer - she went and bought stuff to spray on the plants that was suppose to keep the deer away (it smelled awful) - obviously the deer didn't mind the smell because they just kept eating! So in a moment of brilliance she devised a plan to keep her garden safe - and this is her solution! Hey whatever works! All is takes is a few lawn chairs, a ladder, some old screens and putting this on the plants at night and taking it all off in the morning. I think it sounds much easier to just buy vegetables at the store!

COWBOY UP

Don't you wish you could all have a HOT cowboy like me? Last night just Dan and I went to his Rodeo at the Weber County Fair, it's pretty fun to see him in his roping world, He loves it!

P went tumbling down!


Today I sent Preston downstairs to fetch something for me and he ended up falling down the last few stairs. Being the GREAT mom that I am I said don't move I need to snap a picture for my blog. How funny is that? Just in case you were wondering he is just fine!!

I took a picture as Dan and Londyn were playing cards while Preston watched excitedly. We have been addicted to playing cards ever since we came home from girls camp (which reminds me I need to post pictures of girls camp)

WHAT? A circus in Plain City?

Can you believe it a circus really came to lil' ol' Plain City! My friend Julie and I decided to be nice moms and take the boys to the circus! MMMMM! Nothing better than the smell of elephants! I've decided to start working out on the trapeze-I think I would be pretty good at it!

Kolby Huss, Preston, Hyrum's cousin and Hyrum Littlefield



Londyn and Riley heading out the door to go to a Rodeo with Dan! Watch out for those two teens, well Riley won't be a teen for about a year but still watch out!! Even though they are 3 years apart they are still such good friends!! Londyn loves that she finally has a cousin close to her age that lives in Utah now!
